The hateful and hate filled greens only want one thing, power, absolute power. Just like their predecessor Hitler. Enough hate speech for you Alan B?
You got a cheek whining about hate speech and rants, what about Thorium - ooooh!
Give us a break Al and you have a howdy doody day too! You

If Viv has written satire, then he needs to try harder!

It does not fit in with what he has written previously ... for example, a carbon tax will stifle economic development.
He suggests CO2 does not drive climate.
Viv, says he is a Geologist, he is not an Atmospheric Physicist. James Anderson, an Atmospheric Physicist, was the man whose research discovered the ozone layer was being damaged; he certainly believes CO2 is a driver in climate change. Experimentation shows how CO2 does pick up radiated warmth. The first experiments were conducted in the 1850s by Eunice Foote.

Science is not political, nothing to do with Greens.

The problem with green policy would be minimised, if the greens abandoned their incongruous involvement with human rights, which has not the slightest bearing on ecology!

The real geniuses commenting here think or try to imply, my robust advocation of thorium and nuclear energy is hate speech? Even as the climate goes crazier by the day!

It's not hate speech but reasoned logical argument, that has put the self serving, fossil fuel advocate and a few of his, brain dead hillbilly mates completely offside!

And no I won't shut THFU.

Please explain why the ice retreats and the coral atolls (canary in the coal mine) are inundated, all while the sun is in waning phase!

WHEN THE VERY OPPOSITE, AS NORMAL CYCLICAL CHANGE, SHOULD BE HAPPENING!

If there is any other credible explanation than man made climate change and caused by CO2 emission, already breaking all previous records and up in formerly uncharted territory! The only real difference in play. So genius, what's the other possible, logical, rational explanation?

Martins hiding on the dark side of the moon aiming long range microwaves at us perhaps?

Speaking of which, heard about a new restaurant opened up on the moon.

They say the food is out of this world and to die for, but the joint has absolutely no atmosphere.

You'll have another nice day now y'hear.

Let's just look at anti nuke, anti development, green success story? They locked this and that forest up to save some old trees and a few parrotts, what have you?

Even when logics rites suggested strongly we should keep some selective logging and sustainable sawn timber operation. And thereby halving the trees felled and the number of jobs in the timber industry doubled.

Moreover the logging roads would have double as fire breaks and numerous extra eyes would have been alert to this or that outbreak of fire, which if attacked early enough! Can be completely contained!

But no the greens under Dr Brown, who is never ever wrong, placed bans and restrictions everywhere they could and locked up thousands of hectares that were previously grazed, which incidentally, reduced the fuel load. Were completely silent/missing in action, as a consequence of their brain dead but never ever wrong policies.

A massive wildfire took hold and burned about a million hectares and just about everything in it that couldn't outrun a wildfire moving faster than a steaming express, thundering toward them like a jet taxiing to take off and with equal noise.

Similarly the transition to a tourism lead Tasmanian economy has been so successful that there are now not enough hotel rooms in Hobart. And as a consequence some former rentals have now been conscripted to short stay tourism!

With the end result some of the poorer tenants, single mums and the like now find themselves reduced to living in the dead of a frigid Hobart winter, in a tent in hobart's campgrounds and an unenviable outcome fairly common during the height of the great depression! Or green policy in action!

Never mind, the leadfeather opossum will be saved and as we know from well enunciated green ideology. The birds and the bees, things that crawl or swim are far more important than the pensioner Grans of Hobart or anywhere else for that matter!

Actually uncle Al, it's the policies of the two major parties responsible for homelessness, through unaffordable housing.

It's the lack of interest and refusal to acknowledge the problem by them, which exacerbates the problem of people living on the street.
